    Now that they've pushed the game 'til 8, eating after the game is out. Is there a good restaurant near the stadium? We'll be coming from CT. There isn't a restaurant at Giant's stadium, right? I recall from last year the food is pretty limited in the stadium. Thanks. :)
    ps- we are going to win this home game!

    There are many restaurants within a few miles of the Stadium.

    You got Charlie Browns right behind the complex within walking distance on Route 120, then you got Fridays and Houlihans about a mile north on route 17. You also have Outback Steakhouse, Cheeseburgers in Paradise, another Houlihans, Pizzeria Uno, Bazooka's, and a whole mall food court about a mile east down Route 3.

    There are so many more places, it would be impossible for me to name them all for you....

    There a million Brazilian and Portuguese restuarants in the Newark Ironbound. Brasilia Grill (the Metros had a post game party here once in 2001) and Boi Na Brasa have rodizio for about $20 per person (it's an all you can eat meat special with the salad bar included). Pao de Quixo (right next to Boi na Brasa) is a little Brazilian fastfood resturant... Two pastels, two cochinhas, and one can of guaranana (or coke) for like ten bucks. The peeps from Newark can prolly explain this better.

    Cheeseburgers in Paradise sounds good. Is that fast food? You know in all the years I've gone to the Meadowlands to see the Metros I've only ever eaten at the Vince Lombardi rest area and the stadium. Have never seen a restaurant anywhere. Guess I'm concentrating on getting out of the parking lot as quickly as possible and to the highway.

    Dude, White Castle on Rt. 17 North.

    (on Rt. 17 North there are actual restaurants like TGIFridays and the like. (well actual restaurants for the strip mall suburbs)). On Rte 3 there are also places like Outback, etc.

    Or better yet, bring a grill and cook something up before. It's cheaper and easily a better experience.

    I'll be speeding over from the Yanks game, so I'll have the grill going in my car on the way! ;)

    Redd's on the road that seperates the Arena & Stadium. On the Meadowlands Fair side. Walk away from Rte 3 and it's on the Arena side.

    Harold's New York Deli in Lyndhurst. If you love 19 ounce sandwiches, the place to be is Harold's. I went there before a game this year and they seemed pretty soccer-friendly. TV's had Euro-highlight shows on, I saw a few jerseys on the walls.

    Someone sent me this e-mail.

    "I will pick up Animal (guess who animal is) and Chris B around 6-6:30 and we can meet Steph B in the parking lot. Better idea---we can all go early and eat at the steak place I like (or just meet up at the Bada-Bing on Route 17 near the stadium). If we go to eat, I should pick you up at 5 and we can meet at the steak place at 6 (very easy to get to)."

    That is all he wrote.

    i didn't mention tonnelle ave. since it's not really that close to the stadium (compared to the stuff on route 3)... but if you're gonna go on tonnelle.. stop by white manna. mad good burgers and cheeseteaks. yum

    May I also second Harold's Deli? Amazing sandwhiches and quite reasonably priced. Pickle and bread bar (can't go wrong) and nice selection of brews as well.

    No body's big on the Brazilian resturants in the Ironbound? I thought you guys would like the meat buffets (rodizio) and the included salad bars.

    exactly, 1&9 and NYC and Newark and all those other places arent near the stadium....

    And to answer your question, Cheeseburgers in Paradise isn't too much of a fast food place. It's a sit down place with a bar. Pretty good atmosphere. It's actually in the same complex where the away team stays, so if you want to meet some of the LAG players after the game, or if you get there really early, they stay in the hotel in that little open mall area....

    Also, Red Lobster is moving there, but they are still under construction, wont be done for a few more months.

    If fast food is what you want, you got a Burger King down route three in that same complex, as well as White Castle, McDonalds, another Burger Kind, Popey's, KFC, amonst many others on Route 17 north....

    Maybe if you know the area. For someone who doesn't it would probably be 20 to 30 minutes each way. Remember you aren't talking about someone coming from LA, they are coming from CT. It would be easier to stop and get food in Yonkers or even midtown Manhattan and then come out through the tunnel.
